[ESIP-all] ESIP Energy & Climate Cluster Sessions - July 13th and July 15th (in person or via WebEx)

[Kumar, Shailendra (IS)]

**Please excuse cross-postings**

All,

We would like to invite you to  participate in two renewable energy-related sessions that will take place at the Federation of Earth Science Information Partners (ESIP) summer meeting, to be held 12-15 July in Santa Fe. The agenda and the abstracts for the July 13th session are available on the ESIP Energy and Climate Cluster page at:

http://wiki.esipfed.org/index.php/Energy_and_Climate

One of the focuses of this session is wind energy siting, both on- and off-shore. Several of the presentations are focused on sources of data, techniques, and tools for their use by the wind energy industry, as well as an emphasis on climate change impacts on energy demand and implications for siting. The presentations will also be posted at this website shortly.

On Friday July 15th morning, a special session will be held to discuss a proposed ESIP-sponsored project on "Wind energy siting data and decision tools coordination and partnerships". We'd certainly welcome your input and participation in this activity. By increasing the use, usability, and value of the these data and tools, the ESIP Federation aims to pave the way for science data and information to be used by people concerned about the health of our planet.

Realizing that in-person participation for some members may be difficult to arrange at this late date, we will have call-in capability on both the day of the presentations (Wednesday, 13 July) and the day of discussion of the project proposal (Friday, 15 July). Here is the access information for the Energy and Climate Sessions at the ESIP Summer Meeting:
